That's the beauty of liking old classics, a lot of people forget about them/have never seen them so I can pick up R1 niceness for £9 each

The Hitcher - If you haven't seen this then you probably don't appreciate blacker than night cinema experience. Bleak, unrelenting, grim and relentless. And Rutget Haur being better than he was in Blade Runner.
Kid picks up hitchiker to keep him awake as he drives across country to deliver a car. Hitchiker is 100% psycho and pursues him for no reason at all other than "I want you to stop me". Genius film.

Miami Blues - Alec Baldwin, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Fred Ward. Alec is Junior, a newly released con that kills a Hari Krishna in an airport for touching him. Moves in with Leigh, a former prostitute and is investigated by Fred Ward. Has "Spirit in The Sky" as the title music, Fred Ward getting beaten up and his teeth stolen and Baldwin's fingers getting chopped off by a fat pawnbroker woman that keeps a massive shotgun wielding Mexican in a back room for protection. Superb film.
"He stole your teeth? You're pathetic Mosely. And you look like an old man slept on you"

Southern Comfort - Fred Ward, Powers Booth, Keith Carradine, Brion James and a bunch of others.
Louisiana National Guardsmen on practices in the swamps shoot at Cajuns for amusement using blanks. Cajuns dont like this and spend the next 90 mins hunting them down in the Louisiana swamps. Directed by Walter Hill and the best movie music ever provided by Ry Cooder and his slide-guitar delta blues atmosphere. Includes an onscreen pig-gutting, punji stakes, Cajuns being mental and Brion James as a one-armed Cajun shouting "Keeeel 'iiiim"

I got hold of a film called "Koyaanisqatsi" as it was available on R1 for a short period. VHSs of this have been going on eBay for between £30 and £70 and I got the DVD for £8 from Canada. Sweet.....

the Hitcher was on channel four not so long ago. Someone, probably you, put a post up so I decided to watch it.

Same night as the 'Taking of Pelham 123" I think it was.

That was a late night!
